Event Details

Charles Hill, former Curator of Canadian Art at the National Gallery of Canada, will speak about the origin and history of the Heliconian Club in the social context of the 1900s, during which time women artists struggled to be accepted. Existing art bodies restricted or prevented participation by women, limiting their influence and careers. In response, women formed their own art clubs.
